In the Zaporozhye region started collecting signatures Ukrainian "Do not give steal land!"

April 19 in Ukrainian Zaporozhye region started collecting signatures against the introduction of "wild" land market "Do not give steal earth." The first signature on the application form set Agrarian Party chairman Vitaly Skotsyk, which is in a working visit. According to him, only a united society can stop the authorities' intention to cash in on Ukrainian land and rob the Ukrainian people.

The leader of the Agrarian Party during a press conference said that the collection of signatures is very little time, so you need to step up efforts.

"Ukraine has obligations to the IMF - the end of May to pass a law on the circulation of land. Moreover, the Constitutional Court is the representation of MPs on lifting the moratorium. We have time - up to the end of May. Signatures by this deputy make it clear that Ukraine has neither the power nor the opposition. And in matters of land scams they work together. We see behind the scenes the government is preparing a bill on turnover of land. He even sent the associations for discussion. There is every indication that the document discharged by a small group of oligarchs "- says Vitaly Skotsyk.

According to policy, Ukraine is absolutely not ready to market the land. According to sociological studies, 80% of Ukrainian categorically against the opening of the market. In particular, current conditions and the price of land would be disadvantageous - national wealth will be sold for a song.

"16% of the unit-holders might agree to sell the land because they did not have enough money for treatment and living. What is 16%? This 4 million hectares. Plus in state hands 18.5 million hectares. Imagine if this array will be available impoverished country - what will be the price? It will not even $ 500 per hectare, as now is the land on the informal market. And it's not 15-20 thousand dollars, it should cost. On this wild market price could fall to $ 100 in remote villages. This is not a market - it's just robbery Ukrainian "- outraged Vitaly Skotsyk.

When asked about the start of a nationwide referendum on banning the sale of agricultural land "Batkivshchyna" party Vitali Skotsyk stated that holding such a referendum in the current situation is manipulative.

"Being twice in the executive and parliament sitting half-life of Tymoshenko had the opportunity to develop and submit to parliament a package of bills on the land market. Experts for this it is that were able to prepare an effective land reform, and not to speculate on this painful subject. These policies while in power signed a memorandum with the IMF, which made a commitment to open the land market ", - said Vitaly Skotsyk.

According to him, the main thing is not to use the theme in their own political ambitions and to prevent anyone hold a government bill through parliament, to prevent the possibility Constitutional Court to lift the moratorium. It should focus on qualitative land reform - it is now the main task.

During the press conference the head of Zaporizhzhya regional organization of the Agrarian Party Oleg Nikolenko said that the preservation of Ukrainian land - a matter of national security.

"Earth - is not just a commodity. Today it is a question of our state, the question of our national security. We have to protect the earth not only at the front, and now keep the defense in the rear. So we start collecting signatures throughout the region, both in urban and in rural areas ", - says Oleg Nikolenko.

The collected signatures will be documented embodiment of freedom and will be presented during the mass actions by the Parliament.
